Abstract excerpt

A number of real-time PCR assays for direct detection of methicillinresistant (MRSA) in clinical specimens are targeting staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) right extremity sequences and the S. aureus chromosomal orfX gene sequences located to the right of the SCCmec integration site....
